The City of Wichita said crews worked throughout the weekend to bring an odor problem under control at the city’s Wastewater Plant 2, and those efforts appear to have been successful. The city reported a processing issue at the plant at 57th Street South and Hydraulic, and that was causing an odor problem. Crews used chemical suppressants and lime to help reduce odors, and staff reported no complaints over the weekend from the area surrounding the plant. Wastewater crews monitored the area and did not notice increased odors. The city is still investigating the cause of the processing issue, and there is no mechanical issue with the plant. The city said the plant is in compliance with all discharge requirements and it’s being closely monitored. City crews expect to have the process fixed within two weeks.
